An unusual cause of chyluria after radiofrequency ablation of a renal cell carcinoma: a case report
INTRODUCTION This report highlights a rare cause of chyluria occurring after radiofrequency ablation of a renal cell carcinoma. The condition requires a high index of suspicion, as it may not be diagnosed routinely on imaging follow-up after treatment. As chyluria can vary from no symptoms to hypoproteinemia, hypolipidemia and impaired immune function, prompt diagnosis will allow timely managem...
متن کاملPercutaneous Radiofrequency Ablation of Renal Cell Carcinoma
Background: Preliminary data regarding the use of percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for the treatment of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) are encouraging, and show the technique to be associated with minimal morbidity. Thus, the current study was designed to evaluate the clinical applications, treatment efficacy, and complications of percutaneous RFA in RCC. Methods: From February 2003 to Fe...
متن کاملReview of radiofrequency ablation for renal cell carcinoma.
This review will discuss how minimally invasive, image-guided radiofrequency (RF) tumor ablation [i.e., coagulating tumor using short-duration heating (<15 minutes) by directly applying temperatures >50 degrees C via needle electrodes] is being incorporated as a clinical tool for the treatment of renal cell carcinoma. RF ablation has been used to treat focal liver tumors. Potential benefits of ...
متن کاملRadiofrequency ablation: an alternative treatment method of renal cell carcinoma.
Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) is a common renal parenchymal malignancy. Although complete or partial nephrectomy is still the gold standard of management, a lot of minimally invasive techniques are currently emerging into the field of treatment. Recently, image-guided radiofrequency (RF) ablation has received increasing attention and been proposed as an alternation to more invasive procedures such...
متن کاملRadiofrequency ablation of renal cell carcinoma: part 2, Lessons learned with ablation of 100 tumors.
OBJECTIVE The objective of our study was to review radiofrequency ablation of 100 renal tumors and lessons learned with respect to electrode approach, effects on collecting system, bowel proximity, and patterns of residual disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS Over 6 years, 100 renal tumors in 85 patients underwent radiofrequency ablation. Images were reviewed to determine the following: effect of i...
